I usually just take a month or two off gaming almost completely and just go outside, take walks, watch movies and TV shows, read and/or write, catch up with family and friends a bit, workout more. Then I'll often ease back into it by playing my favorite games and/or those really fun competitive online games I can pretty much always play like Overwatch or Rocket League. But even then I won't do it all at once. A lot of times I find myself listening to audiobooks or podcasts while gaming nowadays, as it works better in entertaining my hyperactive, wandering ADD brain. Sometimes I'll opt for just something relaxing and mindless like Forza Horizon solo mode, as it almost feels like an unwinding activity moreso than gaming. |
I had the exact same idea that used to work for me, put on a podcast and play sonething mindless for the same reason that sometimes I can't concentrate at all and had RDR2, GTA5 and a few others to roam around in but the file sizes are so massive I can't keep these games for that reason. Like 300 gigs for those two games to keep handy, that's about 20% of my storage. It's criminal. Not to mention GT7 which I'd imagine now takes the entire launch PS5's storage.
